25 - "Why I'm Obsessed with Visual Language"

Sharon Choi is a filmmaker who became one of the most beloved faces of Oscar season when she interpreted for director Bong Joon Ho and the "Parasite" team in 2020. She's also a third-culture kid who, after spending two years in California as a young girl, had to relearn her mother tongue when her family moved back to Korea. She spent the rest of her childhood yearning to leave her native country, dreaming of one day telling her own story through the language of cinema.

It was an absolute pleasure chatting with Sharon about art, movies, American culture, living between worlds, childhood trauma, interpretation and finding the right words for our experiences, and building our ideal homes. 

As I mentioned at the end of the interview, I loved being in the space created by our dialogue. I hope you'll enjoy the conversation as much as I did.
